Philodendron Painted Lady

The Philodendron Painted Lady is a striking tropical plant loved for its vibrant foliage and easy-care nature. Each leaf looks like a work of art — lime-green with bright yellow speckles when new, maturing into a deeper green with rich chartreuse veins. Its pinkish-red petioles (stems) add a beautiful contrast, making this philodendron truly live up to its name.

Perfect as a statement indoor plant, Painted Lady thrives in bright, indirect light and adds a bold splash of colour to any space. It’s a climbing variety, so providing a moss pole or totem will encourage taller growth and larger leaves over time.

Key Features:

• Vibrant variegated leaves with yellow and green marbling

• Pink-red stems that add a unique touch

• Climbing variety – loves to grow on a support or moss pole

• Air-purifying and low-maintenance

• Ideal for bright indoor spaces

Care Tips:

• Light: Bright, indirect light for best colour; avoid harsh direct sun.

• Water: Keep soil lightly moist; allow the top 2–3 cm to dry before watering again.

• Humidity: Enjoys moderate to high humidity.

• Temperature: Prefers 18–28°C; keep away from cold drafts.

• Feeding: Apply a balanced liquid fertiliser monthly during the growing season (spring to summer).
